I think some of the merch would be limited edition or have a specific time limit which will be pretty easy give away
“Huh? The limited editions? I tracked down all of the limited edition items because I’m your biggest fan now! I cant have people being bigger fans of yours than I am! Besides, if they take my money in exchange for merch, they obviously wasn’t a big a fan as they thought they were ”

I can do this all day
That's exactly why I chose to not reply
Why doesn’t he just say that since dating him, he loves him so much that he’s also become a fan? It would explain all the posters and merch. There’s no reason to say WHEN he became a fan.
